I just realized that apt-get upgrade wasn't sufficient b/c it warns that the 
packages I need updated will be held back:
The following packages have been kept back:
  libmotif-common libmotif-dev libmrm4 libuil4 libxm4 linux-generic

I had to do:
apt-get dist-upgrade
The following packages will be upgraded:
  libmotif-common libmotif-dev libmrm4 libuil4 libxm4 linux-generic

After this, I do see the updated motif library (dated March-2015 vs 2013):
ls -l /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libXm.so.4.0.4
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 2837728 Mar 24  2015 
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libXm.so.4.0.4

Using my test case, it no longer causes a segfault. I'll do some more testing 
but it looks like this fixed it.
Any chance this update will get pushed into the official Ubuntu updates?

Thanks!
